The first step is to tell the truth to the American people that government is the source of today’s (and yesterday’s) problems. Unless and until this happens any new contract(s) with America is just an exercise in futility.

The American people must begin to understand that inflation is the result of a greedy government, overspending its income from taxes, year after year after year. This causes inflation and the result is a devaluation of paychecks and savings.

Where does government get this additional income? The Fed prints and/or issues more dollars. This means more dollars are available for the purchase of goods and services and prices go up and up. You are at an auction and now each person is given more money than they currently have. Bidding for items now will mean higher purchase prices for items at the auction.

I think it will be Palin/Jindal or Jindal/Palin.

Romney is, in my opinion, old news.

Jindal might be Veep, but it is basically impossible for him to run for President in 2012. Remember, he has to run for re-election in November of 2011. At that time, he won’t even be 40 years old yet.

Jindal has a great future, but Veep may be all we can hope for in his case in 2012.

Good, but politicians don’t care. Hell, they don’t follow the first contract to America to limit government also known as the Constitution.

My thought exactly!

Baby steps Arthur, baby steps. The intrusion of the Feds into education is why we are here (at least in part), eliminating that massive middle class entitlement and jobs program called ‘public education’ will take a generation.

Trying to kill ity all at once makes us the enemy of the middle class whose children ‘benefit’ and whose spouses work in ‘public education’.

By getting rid of the coercive nature of the funding and making it portable, we start the process. At least in my humble opinion.

Sounds good, but could only happen after CW II and return to strict constitutional government.

And of abortion. But if we lead with that we lose the center. Conservatives will all agree with most of the 10 points, so will most of the middle. Let us win without compromising on principle and then we can govern with principle, God willing.

28 years is a lifetime. Think Larry Craig or Ted Stevens.

We need to get Paul Ryan out front as the face of the party.

Hopefully, Herb Kohl will retire soon and Ryan can win a statewide election. It will be tough in Wisconsin though.

His wife is from my hometown and his mother-in-law goes to my church. According to my dear mother, she is a little worried about him becoming an even more public figure.

Just like Term Limits for President, the XXIInd Amendment fixed that, let’s do it again. See post 50 to Arthur McGowan for my agreement with you and explanation regards education. I solicit both of your thoughts on the problem.
